zuk is way to hard. all the guides on how to kill bosses ( specially the new boss rasial ) require you to have that stupid cape with its spell perk. every rotation will have that 100% spell in it that is reduced to 60% ( or around there ). i think its such BS locking such a MASSIVELY IMPORTANT SPELL behind some of the hardest content!

you say you want to get more people into bossing. you say you dont want to work on massive content updates bringing out new bosses only to have a tiny ammount of the player base do that content. Well locking the best spells behind really hard content is one way of keeping people from doing content.

just let us have the cape even if we die. its still very hard to kill and i think its still a big accomplishment

Agreed. Give us a group zuk at least so players can pay to get carried for their zuk capes.

It will be helpful if we have practice mode for a specific wave, especially hard mode.

To me, the problem is the previous Zuk capes were made to improve useless ultimate abilities. Here, being new content it is the most important part of the puzzle, the entire skill is based on you having the Zuk cape.

It's overpowered, required and totally unfair. It's also favoring a portion of the player base at the expense of everyone else. Yeah lots of players have them. Lots of players have also been playing EOC since day 1. They are not the target audience. Not at all.

If you think the ultimate abilities improved by the "previous Zuk capes" (they are actually none, as they are the Klin Capes before Zuk even showed up) are useless, you should have no reason to get the Zuk cape.

If you have to complain about EOC or EOC being hard, you have no reason to even get the optional Klin Capes to begin with.

That logic is completely broken, and the obvious result of trying too hard.

Exactly! If everything is easy, there will be no diversity and no economy in a game. Fortunately, RS3 isn't such a failed game.

Practice makes perfect. Once upon a time, Jad was hard, but then it was easy so Klin came and it was hard. Now, Klin is easy so Zuk comes and it would be a failure if it was easy and thankfully this isn't the case.
